London to a brick: Kevin Sheedy believes a fair dinkum AFL game, rather than an exhibition clash, would create enormous interest and guarantee a sell-out at The Oval in London. Picture: Colleen Petch Source: Herald Sun
GREATER Western Sydney coach Kevin Sheedy is thinking even more forward these days, if that's possible.
Sheedy wants the AFL to schedule a NAB Cup game at The Oval in London at the end of the season.
While the game would be played this year, Sheedy wants it to be included in the 2014 official pre-season competition.
He believes a fair dinkum game, rather than an exhibition clash, would create enormous interest and guarantee a sell-out at The Oval.
Sheedy said the difficulty of playing a NAB Cup game in London in March would be overcome with an official game soon after the Grand Final, which would allow the Giants and its yet to be decided opponent to have fully fit players involved.
"If the Giants were able to secure a game in London at the end of the year, why couldn't that be added as a possible first round for the NAB Cup for the next year?
"I think that would bring some more seriousness to the game and it would be an absolute sell-out," he said.
It would be Sheedy's last game if he got to coach in London. His senior assistant Leon Cameron takes over as coach at the end of the season.
